Volunteers

Learn to Read is always looking for dedicated, encouraging and optimistic volunteers. Volunteers in adult education become first hand eyewitnesses to the transformative power that education has on the lives of adult students.

Learn to Read volunteers have access to a variety of instructional volunteer opportunities. Many of our new volunteers start off as aides in one of Learn to Read’s weekly computer learning labs, where they assist students working on various computer-based instructional programs. From there, the majority of volunteers chose to lead one-on-one tutoring sessions with students who have demonstrated or expressed the need for more individualized and personalized instruction. Veteran tutors and teachers have the option of leading small groups of three to five students who are all working on the same level of curriculum content.
